Text along a curve issues...

Jeffe · September 2015

Having problems with text along a concave curve...it puts the text backwards and upside down...see images...you can see some text done correctly with a convex curve above.

Any help here?

Hello Skycast,

I think that you have drawn your line from the right to the left ("T" to "a") - than the text is placed as on your map.
Try instead to draw the line from the left to the right (from "a" to "T") - and the text should appear as you wish when using the command "Text along curve".

That is drawn from left to right and have tried from right to left as well. No dice.

Is that curve drawn using the Arc tool? Arcs have only one direction, so you will always get this result no matter which way you draw it. You can manipulate an Arc into a path, which does have a direction, but the easiest is simply to use the Smooth Path tool instead of the Arc tool to draw the guideline.
